I sent previous message but I feel I didn't explain well, what I am after.

3rd page of program, I want the individual items on the 3rd page to come up
on mouse click only. The previous 2 pages have all the material come up
automatically. The first 2 pages come up as planned but when I move to the
3rd page, all of the items come up automatically, rather then on mouse click.
I've checked my settings.......2003 version........and it shows set for
mouse but on display of show, it comes up auto. This problem has nothing to
do with page transition, it is the contents on the actual page. Hope I am
more clear. Thanks

If it's the items that are appearing automatically, that has to do with
Custom Animation. Go to the Slide Show menu and choose Custom Animation.
If you have animations already set, they should be listed on the right
side of the screen in the task pane. Click on each one and then choose
the little arrow that will bring down a menu. From that menu choose Start
on Click.

If you don't have any animations set, then click on any object that you
want to appear (to select it). Then click on teh Add Effect button and
choose an effect.
